§ 63. Mr. Russellasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation why traffic signals are being re-erected at Elstree crossroads, on the Middlesex-Hertfordshire border, when some were erected there only about a year ago and soon afterwards removed as a failure; and if he will state the cost of each of these operations of erection, removal and re-erection.
§ Mr. NugentLast year's installation was a temporary one to see if traffic signals could save police control at this awkward junction. The experiment showed that with some alteration in the road layout and modern signal equipment, the change would be satisfactory. This work is now going ahead.
I am obtaining the information asked for in the second part of the Question and will send it on to my hon. Friend.
